Can't prove the supernatural God
RE: Can't prove the supernatural God
What conclusions can you draw? Since you have arbitrarily decided something is in the "supernatural" part of the "unexplained" category, because it's really really really hard to explain according to you, your conclusions are simply assumed. There is no scientific way of distinguishing between "unexplained" and "supernatural". All that can be done is blind, pointless speculation about the lack of remaining "natural explanations" which may account for it. Since we have no experience of these possible unexplained natural explanations, we cannot produce a sensible probability. One era's supernatural magic is another era's common knowledge.

This answer shows that the only reason to call something supernatural is to try and impose significance, which is exactly my point. "Unexplained" is only meant to have the significance of what it means.

As I keep saying: a person labels something "supernatural". They can only ever be proved wrong, following this. It can never be demonstrated to be correct. It's worthless.

It's worse than worthless, actually. It's declaring that you have given up looking for natural explanations. It's a barrier to progress.
